Me again!
Had my booking visit today and all is well so I guess I'm officially having a homebirth. Also had a quick listen to the heartbeat, which was nice.
Hope you're all doing well
No news for me... I don't have my next appointment with my midwife till 24 weeks as all is coasting along so we'll just start to focus on appointments in the third trimester.
YAY Marcellus! i totally love hearing that heartbeat...how fast are they lol?!! and wahooooo on the homebirth booking exciting times and planning ahead!
Meow: we also went to 6 weekly appts as things were travelling along well. also the benefit of having your midwife on email and phone whenever kept me sane lol!
AFM: DH just booked us the birth pool! well, it was booked but now we paid for it!! feel so relaxed now...will be picking it up on the 22nd of August YAY! can't believe i am 29 weeks already! so exciting... have been looking at all the baby clothes and the moses basket and getting all gooey lol!
How exciting Marcellus! I have my booking visit next Monday with.. um... was it Karen? Sue is on leave apparently. Which hossy are you using as a backup?
Cassius: Not long to go at all! The next 11 weeks or so will fly by!! How is your friend and her bubby doing?
Great news marcellus! So exciting. I love hearing the heartbeat too. I've got a quick check with my m/w in the morning, I got a bit paranoid over the weekend because I feel like I've had less movement from bub so she's calling in to have a quick check. So much nicer than having to go to the hospital.
Its funny, I already feel like I have a bowling ball sitting in my pelvis - the pressure is intense! I guess being second pregnancy everything kinda falls into place a lot easier. Here's hoping for another speedy labour with a vaginal birth this time at the end LOL!
Cassius, how is your friend doing? Sounds like things were very fast for her and her LO.
Taryn probably Stoked, she's doing the fill-in work for people away at the moment. She's nice. Which hossy did you use last time? I wasn't sure about swans, it's just down the road from here but felt maybe king eddies would be better. Taryn said Sue often uses Swans though - I'll talk to her about it once we meet.
it was sooooooo wonderful having an appointment at home!!!!! DS was asleep when she got there. then woke up all grumpy. then finally settled down and I got him some lunch. And all during the appointment. so cool.
Hi girls, quietly popping in to register my interest in learning about all things HB.
We are TTC at the end of this year and DP has said he is okay with me having a HB (which was a major obstacle). So while I'm not even pg yet, I'd love to learn from all of your experiences as you travel the road before me! Mine will be a HBAC. So I'll be watching Infinity with much interest!
hi jennifer and welcome woot woo on DH! such a good feeling when you can both be on the same track and approach this together. i reckon that has been the most amazing aspect so far with our HB journey...we are together in creating our space for this new arrival and no one comes in to interfere or block him out. such a special time to share with him and DD...
AFM: i need to book my 30 week appt with my back up midwife (and friend). however have to admit that i am slightly reluctant as i know that she is still reeling from the birth of our other friends son last week and i really dont want to set the wrong kind of mood ITMS. thinking i might hold off until 31 weeks....what do you guys think?
